Send $25 to my paypal account and I will forward you the latest copy of my old fart-young person/young person-old fart dictionary. It has lots of pictures and big print. ;D
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

Awesome Caddyshack scene!! [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] Topped only by the license to kill gophers scene! [clap]

We need more new blood... and not in a creepy vampire way. Being an old fart I am running out of an audience interested (and I use that word loosely) in my posts about Amal Concentric carbs, two stroke mix, kick starters, Angel Nieto and Rusty Bradley stories. ;D I should start a thread of nothing but "for the kids" links. ;)

not to mention monobloc's, rear wheel drive cars with posi-traction, dual quads, vacuum operated secondaries Tom Swift and his Flying Machine....or was it the Hardy Boys and their Dad Fenton?
This is an insult to the Pez community

Ahhhh... Holley dual quads. Sweeeeet. Edelbrock hi-rise manifold I assume? ;D [thumbsup] I didn't date in high school. Too busy working on my friend's 1970 Boss 302 (school bus orange of course!) in his garage and racing MX. And yes, my grades reflected it! [bang] [laugh]

140 on a 620?

My 620 silver/dark could only manage 115, or was it 120.  It was hard to tell with the needle bouncing all over.  If my bike had been red, I'll bet that it could have gone 140 too.

He man, where are all the ads?

I'll bet you were actually doing 140, figuring in speedo error and all.

Sweet! ;) Re-jetting carbs is a dying art. Kind like being an old fart. [laugh] [bacon]

It's the secret hidden features found only in the M620 Capirex that allow it to reach a documented 140MPH.  [coffee]  Red paint alone will not do it.   :)

I understand that it helps to have an eagle decal of some sort.  If not that, than at least one of a bird.

And, you are very welcome and appreciated here.  If you read the posts in this thread closely, the old used up squandered life geezers aren't bashing noobs they're really bashing themselves  [beer]

You'll be obligated to title it "Back in my day..." just so everyone is properly warned.

I though the decal was a turkey...or a Pelican or something??  ???
